India’s national anthem 'Jana Gana Mana', as well as 'Amar Shonar Bangla', which is the national anthem sung in Bangladesh was written by Tagore.
Rabindranath Tagore Jayanti 2022: Today, May 7th marks the birth anniversary of India’s first Nobel Award winner Rabindranath Tagore. He was born on May 7, 1861 in the Jorasanko Thakurbari in Kolkata to Debendranath Tagore and Sarada Devi.
From his poetries, to essays, to his songs and paintings, Tagore has a great contribution to Indian literature, music, as well as art. Tagore is one of the greatest revolutionaries India has produced. His contribution to Bengali and English literature is unmatchable.
Rabindranath Tagore is famous by many names - Gurudev, Kabiguru, Biswakabi and often referred as "the Bard of Bengal".
Read some of the famous inspirational quotes by Gurudev:
- A teacher can never truly teach unless he is still learning himself. A lamp can never light another lamp unless it continues to burn its own flame. The teacher who has come to the end of his subject, who has no living traffic with his knowledge but merely repeats his lesson to his students, can only load their minds, he cannot quicken them.
- Let me not pray to be sheltered from dangers, but to be fearless in facing them. Let me not beg for the stilling of my pain, but for the heart to conquer it."
- The greed of gain has no time or limit to its capaciousness. It's one object is to produce and consume. It has pity neither for beautiful nature nor for living human beings. It is ruthlessly ready without a moment's hesitation to crush beauty and life.
- If you cry because the sun has gone out of your life, your tears will prevent you from seeing the stars.
- Love is the only reality and it is not a mere sentiment. It is the ultimate truth that lies at the heart of creation.
- Don't limit a child to your own learning, for he was born in another time.
- Death is not extinguishing the light; it is only putting out the lamp because the dawn has come.
- We come nearest to the great when we are great in humility.
- A dewdrop is a perfect integrity that has no filial memory of its parentage.
- By plucking her petals, you do not gather the beauty of the flower.
- Faith is the bird that feels the light when the dawn is still dark.
- The smile that flickers on baby's lips when he sleeps- does anybody know where it was borne? Yes, there is a rumor that a young pale beam of a crescent moon touched the edge of a vanishing autumn cloud, and there the smile was first born.
- Beauty is truth's smile when she beholds her own face in a perfect mirror.
- Let your life lightly dance on the edges of Time like dew on the tip of a leaf.
